Our hospital is proud to highlight clinical achievements from Healthgrades®–America’s leading online resource for comprehensive information about physicians and hospitals – in the areas of GI and Cardiac Care. Coast Plaza Hospital strives to provide quality care to the surrounding communities and is proud of these achievements:

Five-Star Recipient for Treatment of Heart Attack in 2020

Five-Star Recipient for Treatment of Gastrointestinal Bleed for 5 years in a row (2016-2020)

For the 2020 Report to the Nation, Healthgrades evaluated hospital performance at nearly 4,500 hospitals nationwide for 32 of the most common inpatient procedures and conditions using Medicare data, and additional analyzed outcomes in appendectomy and bariatric surgery using all-payer data provided by 15 states and found:

From 2016-2018, if all hospitals as a group performed similarly to hospitals receiving 5-stars as a group, on average:

220,019 lives could potentially have been saved and 149,403 complications could potentially have been avoided.* A 5-star rating indicates that Coast Plaza Hospital’s clinical outcomes are statistically significantly better than expected when treating the condition or performing the procedure being evaluated.

Additionally, from 2016 through 2018, patients treated for Heart Attack in hospitals with 5-stars for 30-day mortality have, on average:

a 44.2 percent lower risk of dying than if they were treated in hospitals with 1-star for 30-day mortality.

*Statistics are based on Healthgrades analysis of All-Payer data for years 2013 through 2015 and represent 3- year estimates for patients in 17 states for which all payer data was made available. (See 2017 Healthgrades Women’s Care Rating Methodology for more details)
